37.5 Currency risk

The Group records revenue and expenses in four basic currencies (PLN, EUR, GBP and USD). The revenue and expenses in other currencies do not exert significant influence on the Group currency risk. The balance of revenue and expenses in foreign currencies is usually positive for EUR and negative for USD, and the EUR surplus exceeds the USD deficit. It results in an exposure to changes in EUR/USD and PLN/EUR relations. 

The Group exposures to the currency risk as at the balance-sheet date are presented in the table below.
